Black and white's my comfort zone
But your smile has colors I've never known
They call me the monochrome girl around here
Predictable and simple, or so they appear
Now my heart beats in technicolor
When you walk in the room
Breaking all my patterns
Like a flower starting to bloom
I'm the monochrome girl falling for you
My grayscale world turning electric blue
Awkward glances, clumsy moves
Got me painting outside the grooves
Dropped my phone when you texted "hey"
Tripped on nothing when you looked my way
Practiced cool lines in my mirror last night
But all I said was "your shoelace is tight"
Now my heart beats in technicolor
When you laugh at my jokes
Breaking all my patterns
Like a script nobody wrote
I'm the monochrome girl falling for you
My grayscale world turning electric blue
Awkward glances, clumsy moves
Got me painting outside the grooves
Twenty years of playing it safe
Black and white decisions every day
But with you I'm taking chances now
Making colorful mistakes and learning how
Now my heart beats in technicolor
When you say my name
Breaking all my patterns
Like a wildfire I can't tame
I'm the monochrome girl falling for you
My grayscale world turning electric blue
Awkward glances, clumsy moves
Got me painting outside the grooves
They think they know me
Just another shy girl in line
But there's a rainbow ready to shine
Behind these monochrome eyes of mine
My friends are shocked by my new style
I'm wearing yellow, it's been quite a while
No more hiding in the shadows anymore
You've shown me what these colors are for
Now my heart beats in technicolor
Every single day
Breaking all my patterns
As I learn to live this way
I'm the monochrome girl falling for you
My grayscale world turning electric blue
Awkward glances, clumsy moves
Got me painting outside the grooves
No more monochrome girl, I'm on fire
With every color of love and desire
From black and white to a spectrum view
And it all started when I fell for you
